Sai (Maurice Sadiche), another classmate of his, seeks to join Tarun's music band but gets bullied by Tarun and Abhay in front of the class. Few years later, Tarun is a college dropout and works as Janitor with Abhay as an accountant, both in the same company with Sai, as their boss. Sai constantly insults Tarun at the workplace, to take revenge of the embarrassing high school incident. Tarun falls in love with same Ahaana, the girl who he rejected and insulted during school days. Ahaana is now a beautiful, independent girl who refuses to forgive Tarun for what he did to her. Tarun claims himself to be a loser with all the problems. His father (V.K.Naresh), who works in a CCTV agency, constantly scolds him and motivates him at the same time. One day, Tarun accidentally falls into a cupid curse. He has to complete a task of matching three couples within 48 hours or he can never tell Ahaana that he loves her or for that matter, get any kind of love life again.

Reception[edit]
A critic from 123telugu rated the film 2+1⁄4 out of 5 and wrote that "All in all, Pedavi Datani Matokatundi comes with a different concept but fails to pack a punch, owing to its ill-paced narration and confusing screenplay. The movie looks half-baked as it heads with no real direction".[6][7]
